This is currently possible without any changes ..if I understand your
question correctly .. it is currently possible using WGET and SWISH ..
What I was looking for is a way to index while you collect document ..
Well I have a slight idea how to do it and I have done a little
experiment too.. It's using the simple UNIX commonad pipe..
Well I run the WGET and it allows you to pipe stuff to some other
script.. so I pipe output to swish.. it indexes the file pipe it again
to a "shell script" that deletes my original file .. and the process
goes on again and again..
It is like connecting breaking bones together :-).. Well I will keep
poking around if I find something concrete I think I will write a perl
script so I can do everthing from the web.. I will keep you all posted..
